Oklahoma’s big game populations, from white-tailed deer to elk, mule deer, antelope, and bear, represent one of the state’s greatest conservation success stories, and Rack Madness is where that success is put on display. This event is more than a scoring opportunity; it’s a celebration of sound, science-based wildlife management and the hunters who help make it possible. Join us at Rack Madness to showcase your harvest, connect with fellow hunters and biologists, and see how your success in the field supports the future of Oklahoma’s big game.

This event is March 4 from 1- 6:00 p.m. at ODWC headquarters at 1801 N. Lincoln Blvd. in Oklahoma City. This family-friendly event welcomes anyone to bring their deer or elk antlers, antelope horns or bear skulls for professional scoring by ODWC personnel. In addition to scoring and prizes, there will also be activities taking place throughout the day for adults and children.

Registration and Requirements  

Participants should pre-register at GoOutdoorsOklahoma. Scoring will be handled on a first-come, first-served basis. There is a two-item scoring limit per participant. Antlers must both be attached to the skull plate, whether mounted or unmounted. In addition to white-tailed and mule deer antlers, scoring will be available for elk antlers, antelope horns and bear skulls. Harvest must have occurred in Oklahoma. 

Lifetime License Giveaways and Other Prizes 

When you register, you will be entered in a drawing to win a lifetime combination hunting and fishing license donated by the Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Foundation. 

To help recognize “hunters in the know take a doe,” the Oklahoma State Game Warden Association is also giving away a lifetime combination hunting and fishing license to one lucky person who harvested a doe during the 2025-2026 deer season. Visit the Game Thief Trailer in the front of the building and see the game wardens to put your name in for this lifetime drawing.

The winners of the lifetimes must be eligible to hold a lifetime license and will have the option to transfer the prize to someone else who is eligible. The lifetime drawings will take place at 5:45 p.m. and participants do not have to be present to win. Anyone who registers or checks in after 5:30 p.m. will not be eligible to participate in the drawing.  

There will also be hourly drawings for prizes during the event including items from the Go Outdoors Oklahoma shop!
